This antique vase is a refined example of handcrafted workmanship from the Art Deco period. The design is characterized by a stylized floral motif typical of the early twentieth century, executed in a warm copper-colored base with contrasting color accents.
The object is crafted from brass and finished using the champlevé technique, in which recesses in the metal are filled with colored enamel in shades of red and blue. The vase has a classic, slightly bulbous shape that tapers towards the neck and rests on a flared base. The combination of the polished brass and the matte enamel details creates a subtle interplay of textures.
The vase is in a condition befitting its age and use, with an authentic patina that emphasizes its historical character. The champlevé decoration has remained largely intact, testifying to the original quality of the craftsmanship.
This decorative object looks excellent in a classic or eclectic interior. It forms an elegant accent on a sideboard, mantelpiece, or side table, either as a standalone art object or as part of a collection of antique brassware.
